A Journey of Kings
Prologue
Hello everyone, I know you must be wondering why I haven't updated A Tale of Love and Adventure in a while, and what this new story is. Well I'd just like to apologize for that, I've been very busy over the summer with trips, my job, and the fact that my grandfather had some liver failure. Unfortunately, I have also lost interest in the story for the simple fact that I thought the story idea to make a new character, and then merge two stories together was interesting, but it didn't really work out, so while it was fun to come up with and write, it turned out pretty bad.
Anyway, I've decided to make this new story with the same character, 'Atticus D. Kazumi', but this time, no merger of stories, and it will be relatively the same same backstory, with some minor tweaks (Although, how he kills the Celestial Dragon will change, and it'll be because of what he does to Sabo, and Sabo will be presumed dead, because I have a cool idea for how to bring him back, and it'll be before the timeskip), but I'm gonna flesh it out and explain it fully hopefully chapter by chapter. I'm gonna do this story for the entire series up to the point it's at. I'll try to make the story work with a semi-overpowered character in the East Blue and Paradise, yet still have him be a main player. Anyway I hope you guys don't mind to much, but I honestly think I could have done a lot better with the idea than I did.
I'll keep the original story up, as well as that one god awful story I did for the Sabaody arc. (Which will not happen in this story, although I do have an idea on how to make better)
I'm gonna start with what happened with Luffy and Kazumi after their mother was murdered, then move onto the events of the romance dawn flashback and the post war arc till we get to the start of the series were Luffy and Kazumi set out from Foosha village. Luffy will be slightly stronger than he was originally, with very sporadic haki in very small doses, so don't expect him to sweep the floor with Crocodile, it's still gonna be a pretty damn hard battle for Luffy.
I also had someone ask me what exactly Kazumi's powers are, since it seemed like I was pulling his powers out of my ass, which is basically what happened, but this time I have set guidelines for it, I do need some progression in this story, so I'll only tell you the basic powers, and leave the explanations for special attacks for when he comes up with them, or learns how to use it. Also, haki will work the same way in the theory I talked about.
Superhuman Abilities: Geppo and Soru
Personal Power: Kazumi has the power to pull from his own spirit, turning his hair white, and creating a blast of pure energy. If haki is added, he can control where it goes, and how big the blast is (Like his Holy Fireball attack). Post-Timeskip it will be more powerful.
Haki: Basic knowledge of the 3 types of haki after training with Shanks.
Anger: When angered enough, Kazumi's hair will turn red, quadrupling his power, putting immense strain on his body. He can only hold this form for a maximum of 3 minutes. Afterwards, he can barely move, making him a ragdoll. He needs a full 24 hours to recover, which takes 2 years off his lifespan.
Hope you guys enjoy the new story (And the new name), it should be up within the hour.
